In China and worldwide: Don't stare!
You aren't allowed to steal goods from supermarkets and shops.
You have to learn self-control.
Look but don't touch.
Today I am reading about women in China being warned that in crowded public transport they might get harassed or photographed by men. The same happens in many countries. I agree it's time notices warn or remind everybody:
Simple rule.
When I was a child I was taught:
'Don't Stare!
In a street or on a public vehicle you don't stare. Only look at somebody if you are talking and being friendly.
Every child as soon as it is old enough to reach for goods in a shop is told this by its mother.
If it's not your property, don't touch it.
If you haven't paid, you can't take it.
Ask permission before you touch or take it.
Think of other people.
A nurse or doctor or member of the emergency services has to help and rescue people who are naked or half dressed and act as if that is not important. Can you be relied upon to help and not take advantage?
Are you trustworthy?'
